Dr Oz: “I think we all agree that Covid has passed”.
No we do not agree!
Anyone who thinks Covid has passed has no business in charge of public health.
It’s still here. It’s still killing and disabling.
Get your booster if you can. Wear a mask (ideally an N95) and clean the air!

Do think the single most likely do or die flashpoint for this administration is gonna be the seating of the 120th Congress
Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva hasn't been sworn in, so she has to roam Congress with an escort
I saw her this morning going through security along visitors — something lawmakers don't need to do when walking into the Capitol
More on her limbo status here:

“At this point, I can’t hire staff. We don’t have an office. I can’t get around without being escorted,” Arizona’s incoming House Democrat, Adelita Grijalva, said Tuesday.

Palestine Red Crescent says the situation in Gaza is “only getting worse”, with spokesperson Nebal Farsakh calling it an “unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe”.
Farsakh said in a video posted to X on Tuesday that there has been no food, clean water or medicine entering the Gaza Strip for more than four months.
This has resulted in a catastrophe where people are literally starving to death.
More people are being admitted to hospitals with malnutrition especially among children, pregnant women and the elderly. Continue reading...

He created the problem and now they’re trying to sell this like it’s a win—because ports were EMPTY.
Lowering tariffs for 90 days doesn’t create economic stability—it does prove how stupid he is.
